Local Fred's customers support Hero Hats program
Wednesday, December 19, 2012
Each year since 2002, Fred's Super Dollar stores have commemorated the fallen heroes of 9/11 through a fundraiser for the emergency teams that serve their store locations. The campaign was successful again this year, and Fred's Super Dollar is donating a total chain wide of over $335,631 to local emergency teams across their regions, a 7 percent increase from last year. Fred's Super Dollar stores sold "Hero Hats" for $1 each with all proceeds going to selected emergency teams around store locations. In addition, all operating profits from store sales on Sept. 11 were also donated.
